Sri Lanka attacks: How one churchgoer saved lives

On Easter Sunday, Sri Lanka was rocked by a series of bombings that killed more than 300 people at churches and top-end hotels.

In the east-coast city of Batticaloa a bomb exploded at a Sunday school, killing at least 25 people, including 13 children.

But if it weren’t for the actions of one churchgoer who died in the blast, it would have been worse.
